Unless you think a sentient AI will be created by having sex, that statement is meaningless for this discussion.

Modders need to be more careful in modding. The difference between AI/robot and humanity is indeed a biological one. I know that giving important to sex is something geek culture frowns upon, but when we are talking about 'creating' a different organism, I don't see why pointing out the blatant difference is such a problem.
Sex is not necessary for life and evolution and has only existed in the last third of the fossil record.
